    all it does is make you lose water weight, the second you drink water your belly will be the same as before

    Yup. Dehydrating an area for a while won't permanently get rid of the fat there. It'll plump right back up once you rehydrate.


    omg...i can't believe how many people have had this reply. "Water weight" doesn't actually come from drinking water. it has to do with your sodium intake (salts/ etc). That's why so many people drink gatorade to stay hydrated. it contains salt and an increased amout of sodium so when you can sweat and stay hydrated. another reason sweat is salty. and if you're not very active and you drink something like gatorade or powerade, you'll bloat because it has so much sodium and you're not sweating to balence the intake like the drink is intended to do. drinking a lot of water actually helps you lose weight because it doesn't contain things such as sugars and sodium and it helps keep your system clean and healthy. drinking ice water helps speed up your metabolism because your body temp goes down so your heart rate speeds up to bring it back to normal.

    I use this with exercise and diet it works and is not pointless but alone without good eating habits and exercise its pointless and only temporary. Also good to use when done working out so that area continues to sweat it also creates curves for the body try it everyone different:smile:

    So I posted something here a while ago about getting rid of belly fat. I found an interesting article and it states:

    " When you're trying to lose fat in a specific area, there is a handy trick that personal trainers and instructors use. The hotter you get, the more you sweat and the higher your heart rate is. It takes a combination of both those things (sweat and heart rate) to burn fat. A very easy way to make yourself sweat more and heat up a bit more is to wrap cling film (glad wrap, plastic wrap) around the area you're targeting.
    In your case it is your stomach, some people will want to do it on their thighs or upper arms. The plastic wrap forces more sweat out of your body because you will get hotter as you exercise and you will get better results."

    Has anyone tried that? If yes, what were your results?

    Thanks, I needed a laugh this morning!
